1Average amounts for students at institutions participating in indicated programs.
2Includes only loans made directly to students. Does not include Parent Loans for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) and other loans made directly to parents.
3Constant dollars based on the Consumer Price Index, prepared by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, adjusted to an academic-year basis.
NOTE: Data in this table represent the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Data are for degree-granting institutions participating in Title IV federal financial aid programs and U.S. service academies. Degree-granting institutions grant associate's or higher degrees. Number enrolled includes students enrolled in fall at institutions with either predominantly academic calendars or 12-month enrollments. Data through 2009-10 are for students receiving aid, while later data are for students awarded aid. Students were counted as receiving aid only if they were awarded and accepted aid and their aid was also disbursed. Beginning with 2013-14, awards include the Veteran Affairs (VA) Post-9/11 GI Bill (https://www.va.gov/education/about-gi-bill-benefits/post-9-11/) and the Department of Defense (DOD) Tuition Assistance (TA) program benefits. Some data have been revised from previously published figures.
